Storm Called Katrina by Myron Uhlberg

4.0

Fictional account of a family who lives through the flooding that followed Hurricane Katrina. After the water rises around their home the family escapes, finding shelter at the Superdome. Told from the perspective of a child, void of politics. Touches on the emotions, the sights, and sounds of the flooding and immediate aftermath, only hinting at the frightening aspects. Illustrations are well done and will help readers to better visualize the time and place. Main character is named after Louis Armstrong; toots his horn to help his father locate him in the enormous football stadium. Includes authors note, listing of books and websites to learn more.
